Parents interrupting my life- advice plz?

ok, throughout my life, i was never allowed to go anywhere with friends, not even for projects, i was always being supervised by my parents, yeah they buy me what i need, and what i want, but they dont give me time for social life, they even pick me up for lunch, so that i dont stay at school (they dont like the fact of having a boyfriend, and they think i might have one, if i stay), i never stay after school for school purposes , and now im like a nobody to my friends, b/c i never talk with them either (msn not allowerd), i never went shopping w/o my mom! now that gr.12s coming up, they said i cans stay at skool for lunch- that's it, but i dont rlly care about that anymore, the thing is i want one year off after highschool but they won't let me, they are saying that i MUST go to university, right after highskool, they wont listen to me, they said there are no explanations, and i have to do that, what do i do???Parents interrupting my life- advice plz?
okay, I live with my grand-mum, and she's exactly the same...don't sweat it (although I know it's hard not to). Just sit down and talk to your parents about how, since you get good grades and uphold a good reputation, then you feel you deserve more social freedom. If they still harp about how they want what's best for you and blah blah blah, just tell them politely yet firmly that you don't only want, but NEED more freedom. I know parents can be WAY over-protective, and sometimes they seem to totally not understand you. They say that they remember how it was like to be a teenager, and that it was exactly the same in their day, but they don't realize that a lot of stuff is different than when they were our age, and they have actually forgotten what it's really like to be a teen..the stress and mood swings and the need for friendship and a social life to look forward to at the end of every school day. Just explain to your parents how you feel, and eventually they'll come around. Sooner or later they'll have to realize that they'll have to let you go, whether they like it or not, and hopefully they'll do it without too much lecturing about being responsible and all that stuff, but they'll come around, trust me..just try to hold out until then, and think about all the fun you'll be able to have with your buds when your parents give you more freedom.





Hope I helped you out and good luck! =)Parents interrupting my life- advice plz?
i believe that your parents are trying to live your life...let them know how you feel. let them understand that you need a social life and that you are responsible enough to make some of your own choices about school, boyfriends, friends, and shopping. i think its time you tell them what you really want and see fit for your own life, if university is not somewhere you want to be then what you should do is find all the positive things about where you really want to go like the cost the successful things that has happened there...sometime things work better when you tell a stubborn parent whats really going on and how you feel about the way they treat you. because honestly if it was me i would have been told my parents bluntly on how them constantly treating me like a 4 year old..parents cant constantly shelter a child because they wont always be there.. we are at the age where we have to mature ourselves, learn from our mistakes, and find out who we are without parent involvement..what they are doing is keeping you from who you are going to become one day and they need to know that! immediately!
This might not be the answer you want but its the truth. Your parents are only doing this because they love you and care about you. My daughter is only 3 months, but I have been thinking so much about her future and I don't plan on her doing alot of things either. Your parents do sound alittle overprotective, but they just don't want anything to happen to you. Not staying at school for lunch in alittle extreme and I can't find a reason why thats bad, but thats their choice. Like if you stayed over at a friends house and for some reason something bad did happen to you your parents lives would be over, your their child they would do anything to keep you safe. And thats just what they are doing. Lay back and think one day about when your a parent and have a kid, think about what you would and wouldn't let him/her do. I can relate to you so much though, because even though I'm a mother I've very young and my mom was the same exact way. She's only let a few friends come over my whole life, I was never allowed to go anywhere at all. But it's only because she cares. And now, having a kid myself I realize where she was coming from. You too will realize that someday. But just try talking to your parents, just sit them down and tell them how it makes you feel that they wount let you have a social life, if you tell them camly and rationally they will understand, and you never know what could happen.
you have it bad girl





Alot of parents think they can force there children to do whatever it is that they want them to do but in the long run it only leads to resentment. Your parents can pay all the money they want to pay for you to go to school but what does that change, a waste of money for your parents if you don't want to be in school especially if you really don't have to you are going to FAIL. Why? you don't want to be there. And you should explain this to your parents, if your parents keep acting and treating you the way they do you will turn into a wild child, or they will lose their child. I shouldn't say everyone would turn out like that, but my parents did the same thing. And if your not wild now, eventually you will be especially if you don't talk to them now. How bad could it be. You are Grown and should be able to speak your mind.
